A delightful and healthy twist on pizza, using portobello mushrooms as the base.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the right texture for the mushroom base.
Clean the portobello mushrooms and remove the stems.
Use a damp paper towel to clean the mushrooms to avoid them absorbing too much water.
Place the mushrooms cap-side down on a baking sheet.
Lining the baking sheet with parchment paper can make cleanup easier.
Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the mushroom caps.
Use the back of a spoon to spread the sauce smoothly.
Top with chopped bell pepper, onion, and shredded mozzarella cheese.
Distribute the toppings evenly to ensure each bite is flavorful.
Sprinkle Italian seasoning over the toppings.
Adjust the seasoning to your taste preferences.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Keep an eye on the pizzas to prevent the cheese from over-browning.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Letting the pizzas cool slightly makes them easier to handle and enhances the flavors.
